Model Reference Support - MPC57x

ext-rafael_barb — Mon, 06 May 2019 13:45:41 GMT

Hello,

Does the Model Based Design toolbox support Model Referencing?

I am trying to build a simple example using Model Reference Block from Simulink, as you can see below:

But I am getting the following errors:

How can I build the model using model reference?

Kind Regards, Rafael Barbosa

Hi ext-rafael.barbosa@chassisbrakes.com‌,

It is supported. Please have a look at the PIL example in the toolbox or here: https://community.nxp.com/thread/453726

You need to add a config block into the reference model too. (we currently working to remove this kind of limitation)

Best regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

I added a configuration block in the referenced model as well, but I still could not build it.

When trying to build the above model, I got the following error message:

It is important to mention that I could build the referenced model "Sum" in the board, before used it as a reference model.

Hi again Daniel,

Regarding the PIL example, I could to run it here. However this example is different from what I am trying to do.

As you can see below, this model should just be executed and just the referenced block is build in the hardware.

In my current situation, I am trying to build the model with an inner referenced model.
And I can not do it.

Did you could build the model that I sent as example previously (inside ReferenceModelTest.zip) ?

Kind Regards, Rafael

Hi ext-rafael.barbosa@chassisbrakes.com‌,

I am looking into your issue. I was able to reproduce your error, and I am trying to fix it. I will add a hotfix as soon as possible.

Also, could you provide me an alternative solution for the .elf file generation from multiple Simulink .slx files, via the combination of the generated C code generated separatelly?

Kind Regards, Rafael

Dear paulvlase‌

Any news on this topic?

We are waiting for some solution as we want to work with segregation of Application part of the software.

Hello abhishek.kumar@chassisbrakes.com‌ and ext-rafael.barbosa@chassisbrakes.com‌,

We have investigated this and if we were to provide a patch for adding support for the Reference Model, the patch would bring important changes to the toolbox structure. So we will try to add support for Reference Models in the next release, probably at the end of this year.

Also, if you have suggestions for features, feel free to express them.

Best Regards,

Marius

Dear mariuslucianandrei‌, dumitru-daniel.popa‌

1. What would be the target date for next release?

2. Would you be able to provide a guideline (and support) to work with AUTOSAR in the next release?

Currently we can generate application code with AUTOSAR compliance but we fail to have base layer communication via RTE to application layer.

Best Regards,

Abhishek

Hello abhishek.kumar@chassisbrakes.com‌,

For the first question, the release will be available probably in December this year. I will keep you updated regarding the date!

For the second one, we will enable support for the Matlab Autosar Blockset which will provide an easy way to test the AUTOSAR Application Layer directly on MPC57xx microcontrollers in PIL simulation. The same functionality which is already available for the S32K1xx in our toolboxes.

Best Regards,

Marius

I am trying to have the configurations and interfaces of the peripherals in separate reference models, and the MCU configuration block in the model of Model, any hint on how I can achieve that?

Re: Model Reference Support - MPC57x

mariuslucianand — Fri, 23 Oct 2020 08:37:31 GMT

Hello @Wensh ,

The MPC57xx toolbox uses a custom .tlc file based on the ert.tlc. For now, you have to add our configuration block to all of the referenced modes. Adding our configuration block should not affect the simulation at all. One way of keeping all the referenced models in sync with the top model is to save the Configuration for the top model and propagate it to the reference models.

Hope this helps,

Marius

Yes it helped, will give a try, thank you.
